Found this Fairmount auto wrench in the local charity shop. Rusty and dirty.
Paid € 2.50. Looks better after three days in white vinegar.
Very rare in the Netherlands.
Maybe out of a toolkit of an American car ?

Henri, there are many thousands like that here in the states, but not many that are marked FTF.

I think Fairmount was in Cleveland. It would make more sense to me, if it was forged with F.TC. for Fairmount Tool Company. Not sure about F.T.F., maybe Fairmount Tool Forge?

Fairmount Tool and Forging. Here is a newer one that would be correct for a Willys WW2 Jeep.
